As often as we change wheels, I'm going to pick me up one of these.

I use that same 1/2" drive non-marring 22mm deep socket by Titan (from AutoZone). Even with the length of the socket, you also need a 3" extension. 140 ft./lbs. torque.

gm cars have been all metric since 2000

I have that socket as well. Just picked up a 17 mm for my other car and a 21 mm for my wife's car. wjones14 is correct, you will need an extension.
